Services
Halesowen Dance Academy specialises in offering a friendly and welcoming environment for all our pupils across Hagley and Halesowen. We offer a range of dance styles delivered by fully qualified teachers. Our lead teacher Nicola Hayes is qualified to Fellowship standard with The National Association of Teachers of Dancing and shares with the pupils both her passion for dance and her many years' experience of teaching.
Ballet is often considered to be the basic foundation for most other styles of dance. It teaches discipline, technique, and core strength. Our ballet dancers at Halesowen Dance Academy follow a specialised training programme grounded in the N.A.T.D syllabus and examinations. Pupils that study ballet will have the opportunity to progress on to pointework.
Pupils will have the opportunity to work towards N.A.T.D. (National Association of Teachers of Dancing) and C.D.E.T. (Council for Dance, Drama & Musical Theatre) accredited examinations and awards. We run regular examination sessions and when a teacher deems a pupil ready they will be invited to be entered for an exam.

Halesowen Dance Academy has just been fabulous for my daughter. She's grown in confidence and loves it completely. Nikki always works so hard to provide fun lessons and went to huge lengths during lockdown to keep the girls dancing. My daughter and I can't recommend HDA enough and we can't wait for the shows to start again!

My daughters have danced with HDA for 7 years and love it. As a parent I've really appreciated how each child is treated as an individual and positively encouraged rather than unhelpfully pushed. The girls love the mix of exams, shows and just having fun enjoying dance. A few years ago I even joined the adult tap group which has been great! Nikki is an inspiring, patient and enthusiastic teacher.

I have been bringing my daughter to ballet, tap and modern here since she was 3 and she is a happy, confident dancer. She has been able to work towards her Rainbow awards and has always passed with distinction, thanks to Nikki's teaching. Her teachers at school have commented on her confidence at school on stage and within PE and movement lessons and credited Halesowen Dance Academy to this. Highly recommended!

What a fantastic dance school!
Over the past 10 years all three of my children have been a part of the Halesowen Dance Academy family.
My two girls doing ballet,tap,modern,contemporary, points and street dance. Taking part in shows, competitions, exams,summer schools and much more. Making firm and lasting friendships on the way.
My son (who is disabled) was also able to join the street dance troop, with help, care, consideration and nurturing from Nikki has come on leaps and bounds and massively grown in both strength and confidence. I couldn’t ask for more from Nikki, the dance school teacher
